Mantra: Strong, Mighty, Able
I am my own inner voice, the voice that tells me "You can do this, you are strong and able, and you can keep going forward"
I am my own coach, I shout to myself "I know what you are made of and you can run faster, you can dig deeper and bring it. I won't accept anything less"
I am my best cheerleader. I rally for myself , cheering, "You got this, its all you girl, you ARE doing it! Keep going!
I am my biggest fan, saying "I am so proud of you! You really did a good job, you didn't quit when you were tired, you kept going! Wow! How do you do it?"
Silly I know, but I love hearing all these things when I out running and trying to reach my goal.
This makes sense to me too because, no one cares if I shave a minute off my mile or ran the whole length of the big hill, or stuck to my training regimine except me. And not because I dont have caring people in my life because I so do, but these are my achievments, my notches on my running bed posts. I do this for me.
Im glad that I can count on me. This feeling has come to me late in life. Maybe thats the normal. Maybe like wisdom coming with age, so does self appreciation. Whatever the reason, I glad for it!
